So I’ve been thinking for a while about this subject, and I finally decided to make a post about this some time after I saw a YouTuber say what I put on the title of this post.

Thing is, I’ve noticed that very often young people and especially kids are treated as lesser beings, like if they were not humans beings with problems and lives of their own but just an annoyance that people have to keep up with.

I remember when I was a kid and I wanted to cross a zebra crossing cars would just pass by without stopping more often than not. Now that I’m an adult they stop pretty much every time. I suspect it was because they didn’t want to stop for someone they consider to be lesser than them.

Also, a lot of people seem to think that being a kid means that you just play videogames or whatever all day, but don’t these people remember when they were kids? I sure do. Going to school has been the worst thing I’ve ever had to endure. The only difference with having a job is that you don’t get paid.

    Children are tripping hazards due to their small size and erratic movements.

      Solution: Give every child an air horn so they can announce their presence at all times.

          And people rarely, if ever, trip over babies. The solution works!

        Most children do well enough with that one their own I would say.

      New evolutionary biology hypothesis: toddlers are loud and annoying because those that weren’t were stepped on and did not make it to reproduce.
